Hi all! I really need a rom with fully-working camera, + fast, stable, bug-free, for adolescent daughter, so I ask your suggestions and your knowledge of this phone.
My own phone is Optimus p500, got it modded to my liking, etc. I got the Ace for the ado daugther in the house 2 days ago. She is a facebook, pictures and sms addict. No overclocking or games for her is needed. She needs a simple, stable, bug-free and fast rom. It needs to not bug or FC so she can impress her friends.. Today I have read through many pages and threads of roms, and I had a quick look at what is available. Ics sunday and cm7.2 rc0 by lates would seems among the most promising available.
A working camera is definitely a must for her. If needed I could always get lg camera and try it, as suggested in some roms to see if I can get no dark videos and LED working. [ I'm wondering if camera gives trouble, nobody tried to get stock samsung camera ported? ] Is there a fail-proof, noob-proof 3rd party camera, or is it the LG one, or is there any rom fail-proof and noob-proof, stable, fast and bug-free? [ I realize nothing is noob-proof, but she need stable, fast, bug-free, a good camera with LED flash working, and facebook. ] If there is no bug-free camera rom I know she'd prefer the laggy stock rom because a working camera is essential for her. I'd hate it for her to be " stuck with stock " though.
Also, is there any roms, options or ways to get 3rd party apps to login using facebook credentials ? Most weird issue. Might be a deal-breaker on any rom for noob adolescent daughter..
Any suggestions? I believe you all know this phone way better than me. I could guide you for my own but I'll appreciate the tour guides for the Ace

Stock ROM?
I
Srsly, the most [relatively] bug-free, stable ROM for the Ace would definitely be Samsung's own.
CM7 for Ace has some minor glitches and bugs ere and there, although its reportedly faster. But since your daughter is not too technical (based on my speculation of your description), having too many or too little options isn't a concern of hers.
You can try a custom stock ROM, of course. It (should have) the same stability, but smoother. The most well recieved custom stock ROM here might be fla.sh's X2, codeROM, and TheMyth ICS. But the first two are dead projects with no active developers.
This post was sent from hell.
Gingerreal is the only option plus facebook issue was there own issue. Its not related with roms. Its fixed with newest version. Everything is working perfect on gingerreal. So you can go with that.

Used theMyth KS3 and now ICS beta2, it works awesome, based on stock Rom with useful scripts to manage RAM better
Added: transparent touchwiz, BLN control,.... everything's ok, no OC, no bugs, no FC and of course camera works well

Overall -cm. For me battery life lasted longer in cm than stock. And obviously features add to it.

CM7.2
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
CM Permission management is the biggest selling point, I love the fact that is integrated and no need to install extra apps or modify apks, plus the 640*480 video recording, last time I checked stock only lets you record video at 320*480, then of course the pletora of additional features and the coolness level
nice idea to make a poll like this
Definitely cm!

my opinion
CM!
Why? (This is just my opinion, i don't wanna pi** anybody off with this.)
Stock has some samsung-only apps like "AllShare" etc. but i dont care about these.
And it has its own contacts browser which supports quick call/sms by swiping over the contact. i really love that feature, but the pros of cm are alot more:
- its looks better (menu effects from ics etc.)
- it has awesome customization options
- it has the theme chooser <3
- and the most important thing: it defo runs faster/better!
i prefer stock based roms
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
i love cm but can`t install in my galaxy pro,no custom flash recovery anywhere
Stock with CF-Root b84.
it seems cm is more desired than stock ...still what's the upside for stock?
CM7 More speed and better Performance and better Settings
i wait for CM9 Beta
(Custom) Stock. Full stability and more comfortable for daily usage.

stock FTW
for me its modified stock... Ive tried loads of roms and so far omega rocks my world and my phone....
there's some kind of magic when you revert from CM to stock... you know... all working as they should, you have the assurance that your phone won't give up on you. The thing is though after a few minutes on stock and having tried CM you miss lots of things which I can't be bothered to mention now.
So CM for me!
yea...once i use cm and tried back to stock ( based rom) it feels rather odd ...and limited =(

Hi,
First off, galaxy s2 is still an amazing phone compared to the beasts released this year, fulfills every need at great speed and life.
I would recommend to you the Hyperdroid rom, it is simply the best where speed, life, response and its simplicity matters. I am a very happy user, thanks to Hyperdroid team, it wouldn't have been possible for me not to worry about its battery life and yet get great performance. It's based off official Samsung rom, so everything is guaranteed working. Best combination would be Hyperdroid rom + Redpill kernel which is also made by the same dedicated team, props to them. You won't be disappointed
Regarding the notification light, yes it very much possible, if I'm not wrong it requires a custom kernel like redpill...or any other of your choice. From the play store, type in BLN notification.

I recommend the "MIUI v4" Rom..ist smooth and beautifull...and there are updates every week
Yes but I don't like the Samsung touchwiz style interface in fact I hate it, also I would like to have an app drawer which knocks miui off the list.
any more suggestions

Why not try some other launcher, such as Go Launcher, ADW, etc, in place to pick a full ROM?
You mean I can put adw. On top of miui, I'm gonna give that a try. Also is there any way to make a log of all the websites visited through any browser and have that remotely accessible?

Try apex launcher in ics........
Try wannam lite rom..

I can recommend you AndyX Rom
I'm currently using v14 of this rom on SGS2 and for me it's just what I need
Many apps/settings included in this rom makes using the phone much faster and easier
It also includes Apex lancher mentioned by indresh88 which I guess is the best lancher

not realy !! i installed it and it run cool and smooth too !!
ram is good almost 300 free !!
no one use miui ???
Well, I used to have it, but I didn't like the fact that it still was at 6.1.A.1.58 while the latest version was .2.45 at the time.
Otherwise, it was pretty good with awesome theme support, way more eye-candy than stock and battery friendly. In other ways, better than stock at everything rly.
Not to mention it's the only choice we have for those of us who dont want to unlock their bootloaders. It's also stock based which means, everything that runs on stock, runs on MIUI.

I was using it for a long time but it's a memory hog and still no word of a new base Rom update.

I've never liked miui. Most people buy xs because they like the Sony ui. I don't even run cm I like it so much.

i agree with u on this. its been 6 months since i bought XS the only custom rom i tried was MIUI and got back to stock in less an hour. Sony's UI is the only thing stopping me from flashing any other rom.
MIUI is a mem hog and it's based on single country's custom build .58 firmware :/
i am using miui from past one month and love it,some what is dont like the sony ui.
Its not all about the ui,, you can have xperia S theme so its not a problem
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Another MIUI user over here!
Simply the best ROM available for Locked BL.
Maybe a bit more heavy on memory, but also much more Graphical and the user options are so much more that you forget about it.
I don't have any problems with performance/memory. And, when think could be related, simply went to Task Manager and clear all apps.
Every week updating new version, without any problems.
i'm using miui too.
perf: u can use init.d tweak to get better performance
theme: use xperia theme! heck, u can even use xperia launcher and still got the miui icons u've set
mem: see perf . it's a little bit takes more memory (diifer with every kernel too, xsx v6 seem takes less memory, but i use adv stock v14 anyway), but i havent experienced performance dropped.
fw: ok, it's based on 1.58. but anyone know what real difference between 2.45, 2.50 and 1.58? and if u have unlocked bootloader, u can flash kernel that based on fw 2.45 or 2.50
and you'll get the attractive themes (icons, status bars, drop down notification, lockscreen, etc), the free desktop theme is kinda cool too and get weekly OTA update (official miui)

There is not a best. Choose on your own free time.

Like b-ecok said there is no best. Though my favourites are:
1) ARHD 17.1 is a great Touchwiz ROM, it's clean and simple.
2) SlimBean 3.1 is a great Cyanogenmod/AOKP, it really light and super fast
